UMS is starting and stopping all the time

Hi there,
I tried my luck in the renderer forum but had no luck. For whatever reason, my UMS is starting to serve and then stopping again every few seconds which of course leads to skipping videos. I attached the debug logs. Does any1 have an idea what I am doing wrong. It seems I am the only person having this problem
.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, this is driving me nuts for 2 months now.
Thx
Ala
EDIT: Since I am too dumb to read the How to ask for Support thread, I added the debug logs with trace enabled.

Try changing your default language in UMS from English to German.

Tried that (I changed UMS to german, this also changed the prio for audio). No change.
New tracelog attached.
I should note that all my movies are in English, as in my windows version, the TV language etc.
Thx for taking a look at this.

your movies might be in english but your file structure is in German, the java language might not be able to understand the german special characters if UMS is not set to German. Thats what i was thinking

That's what I meant. I am using an English Windows version, and there are no German folders etc.
Any other idea what is happening. When the start stop procedure is going on, UMS is sometimes showing me negative buffer, but I guess that's know problem already.
I think it's something particular with the way DLNA is working on this LG TV. For whatever reason, it seems that the requests it sends are interpreted as a stop/restart command. But that's just my guess. No idea what is really going on.
Kind regards

What kind of LG TV do you have?
It might not be the same that UMS is selecting for the renderer.conf file...
in this case UMS is selecting the following:
Phillips TV
Code: Select all

But if your LG is not a "LG 42LA644V" there could be your problem... I'm noticing with a few other posts that LG uses a very general user-Agent so if you have an LG -- more than likely -- a new CONF file might have to be created specifically for it.

I have a different model, but the conf file is working very fine for me as long as I am not trying to transcode anything.
The mentioned effect only appears when I force the transcode (since the .mkv files have DTS sound which the TV doesn't support).
The Model I have is an LA6136. But as I said, it supports the same files types the other models do. It essentially plays everything but DTS.
I already tried to create a new file for it, but nothing I did fixed this start/stop issue.
Any other ideas?
Kind regards
Ala
P.S. Streaming to PS3 and my Philips TV works fine.

Hmmm
i wonder if this might need to be set from True to False -- WrapDTSIntoPCM=False
give that a shot.

I tried it. The TV still shows unsupported audio.
When I force the transcode, the starting and stopping occurs again.
I attached the new trace. Any other idea? I am really wondering if I am the only one with this LG model
.
Kind regards

Haha, you might be the only one with that model as it is a German model and our community isn't that big (...yet)
